[OS] nvOC easy-to-use Linux Nvidia Mining

MPH wise, we got the major ethash and equihash algos, we already have SALFTER's MPH switcher.

Only thing remaining is the zpool algos.

Someone asked me about implementing a switcher for zpool.  Took a quick look yesterday to see what information their API provides...turns out it's not much at all.  Unless they have some undocumented API calls available, there's nothing on which to base a switching decision.  I suppose there's WhatToMine, which could possibly lead to a more generalized switcher, but they appear to have somewhat limited algorithm coverage.

It's possible to calculate expected production for a coin based on your equipment's hashrate and the network's difficulty; that's basically what WhatToMine does.  If I can find a sufficiently diverse source of network difficulty figures, I might be able to knock something together.  (https://chainz.cryptoid.info/dmd/api.dws?q=summary might be a possibility; I need to compare it to what can be mined at NiceHash/MiningPoolHub/ZPool to see if it might be sufficient.  Back in the day, I was running a bunch of block explorers myself; I'd rather not go back to that if I can avoid it.)

Edit: On slightly deeper inspection, the aforementioned chainz.cryptoid.info doesn't even cover the likes of BTC or ETH, though it does have a ton of shitcoins I've never heard of.  Anybody have recommendations for a multiple-coin block explorer with an API that makes difficulty information available?

It was me who asked for Zpool auto switch
Thanks a lot for taking the time to consider doing it.
There are many zpool switch under windows
If it helps have a look at these
megaminer , multipoolminer and nemosminer

Zpool don't have worker and only way you can see your worker is in your password as an option
If you add worker next to address BTC address like other pools you don't see your worker.
My bad I added worker in address too . It should be in password only.

Code:

ZPOOLADDR="$BTC_ADDRESS"
ZPOOLPASS="$WORKERNAME,c=BTC"

You can search your stats using your BTC address right? But, that only give you over all info not RIG wise, is that what you are trying to say??

Exactly
when search for your btc address it shows worker/rig without name
only way to see which rig it is, is through password option as Extra

Perfect, thanks papampi for explanation

ZPOOLPASS variable will be useful for people with multiple RIG's pointing to ZPOOL, but don't think we need ZPOOLADDR as it only holds value of an existing variable ($BTC_ADDRESS)?

If all want to use BtC, which usually do it wont be needed
but zpool documentation says you can exchange to any coin you want so ...

its your choice to add more headache and options that wont be needed usually

It works fantastic! Thank You! Do you happen to have a solution where this can mine Ubiq coin?

There you go;

Is there any way to mine ubiq with this software?

Add the following details to your 1bash :

Code:

COIN="UBQ"

Update your own address, pool and worker :

Code:

UBQ_WORKER="$IP_AS_WORKER"
UBQ_ADDRESS="xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
UBQ_POOL="stratum+tcp://eu.ubiqpool.io:8008"
UBQ_EXTENTION_ARGUMENTS=""

Add this in the right place in the bottom code

Code:

if [ $COIN == "UBQ" ]
then

if [ $CLAYMORE_VERSION == "9_7" ]
then
HCD='/home/m1/eth/9_7/ethdcrminer64'
fi

if [ $CLAYMORE_VERSION == "9_5" ]
then
HCD='/home/m1/eth/9_5/ethdcrminer64'
fi

if [ $CLAYMORE_VERSION == "9_4" ]
then
HCD='/home/m1/eth/9_4/ethdcrminer64'
fi

if [ $CLAYMORE_VERSION == "8_0" ]
then
HCD='/home/m1/eth/8_0/ethdcrminer64'
fi

UBQADDR="$UBQ_ADDRESS/$UBQ_WORKER"

screen -dmS miner $HCD -epool $UBQ_POOL -ewal $UBQADDR -epsw x -mode 1 -allpools 1 -dbg -1 $UBQ_EXTENTION_ARGUMENTS

if [ $LOCALorREMOTE == "LOCAL" ]
then
screen -r miner
fi

BITCOIN="theGROUND"

while [ $BITCOIN == "theGROUND" ]
do
sleep 60
done
fi

Is it possible to compile latest ccminer klaust for linux ?
I'm getting +1000 kh/s neoscrypt with 1070 on windows with it
while SPccminer gives 800 kh/s on nvoc

Happy to report -

Once i got rid of that shitty celeron processor and upgraded to the pentium G4560 - all issues went away immediately.
NVOC - greatest mining OS ever.

[davidadrake]

I must be missing something stupid, but I cannot get this to boot off my USB. My computer boots from USB fine, because I tested it with a Ubuntu image written to that same stick. I usually use Win32 Disk Imager, but that didn't boot, and neither did rufus or etch. I tried YUMI, but I guess my 16GB USB drive is too small to fit that and this. I know it writes the image fine because I can open the drive in Windows to edit the 1bash file. I use SD Formatter to reclaim the whole drive each time prior to writing this image.

Any other ideas?

salfeter mph gives me error

Code:

That's the line that loads the config file.  By the time it's run, 3main should have already generated mph_conf.json.  What do you have in that file?

Now I'm getting new error

Seems like coinbase api blocks my country ip
cant open the url without vpn.

Possible to disable exchange rate? and use btc as currency?

I'm running off of a 32 GB sd card in a USB card reader right now. You might give that a shot if you're just desperate to get something running. I burned the image using etcher on a Macbook.
